  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

    The New CF

    I could claim to be Ronald Reagan. That wouldn't make it true. CF is a messageboard. That's it. As you noted above no church that we know about has created this site as an online presence. The only authority is Erwin.

    He might. You notice I didn't say how to pray for cf leadership. :P (Psalm 69 comes to mind)

    There is . . . please pray for the leadership at CF. Steve is fine but I'm sure he'd appreciate your prayers as well.

    The New CF

    It's good to see you too! ;) I don't know how Erwin's new reforms will play out yet but I am not going to automatically think that things will be worse because of them. I think some very good things will come out of the reforms like the loosening up being able to forthrightly tell people...

    Semper Reformanda Rule Suggestion

    Are they familiar with the rules and apply them fairly? Then I don't care who they are. We are not electing a board of elders. What about it? Calvinism and the Gospel are strong enough to withstand it. Have you considered that maybe God is allowing them to "flood" into here because WE...

    Not to be too nitpicky but CF is not and never has been a church.

    Semper Reformanda Rule Suggestion

    Why are we trying to rebuild a wall? Isn't the driving force of Calvinism evangelism? Especially since we know that God is sovereign and that He WILL call His people home? I'd think we'd want to encourage as many people as possible to come and visit . . . especially if we won't go out to...

    Tithing?

    Have you searched the Scriptures to see why you feel the way you do? I still haven't been shown NT evidence that the tithe is for Christians. Someone tried Hebrews 7 but that really doesn't say Christians should be tithing. If you think Christians are commanded to tithe please point out...

    Tithing?

    I just reread it. Where do I mail my check to my High Priest? There's no mention there of giving it to my local pastor. Who collected the tithe back in the day? Paul only asked people to give in order to help out the Jerusalem church.
